Continuous localization all across the entire supply chain

Translation vendors spend valuable time on project administration. Small and frequent projects have become the norm, but they are expensive to manage. BeLazy monitors jobs in the translation portals of your customers and automatically creates those you decide to accept in your XTRF, Plunet or proprietary business management system.

Start using BeLazy

Streamline and automate the way you receive and deliver translation projects, no matter how many customers you work for.

Save up to 90% of the project management time and costs associated with small, repeating translation jobs coming from vendor portals.

Manage the vendor portals you use daily from a single interface and share login details and customer instructions with multiple project managers. Review the history of projects per customer in BeLazy to facilitate invoicing.

After you create and automate the connections to vendor portals, you will see all the jobs offered to you in BeLazy. You will be able to sort and group them by categories like volume, language pair, cost, connection or end-customer. There is no longer a need to juggle URLs to regularly check for projects or review email notifications about projects that are no longer offered to you.

You can easily accept jobs offered to you in BeLazy so that they are approved for you in the vendor portal. The auto-approve functionality allows you to set up rules to automatically accept and approve certain types of jobs. For example, jobs in your most common language pair from a regular customer, or those that are less than 500 words and have a delivery deadline of at least one day. Automatically approving jobs will also make your customers happy: they will value the fact that they can place projects quickly, and you won’t miss out so much on jobs in auction-based portals.

Automated connections allow you to approve jobs in vendor portals and instantly generate them as projects in your business management system such as Plunet or XTRF. This saves you a lot of time-consuming, error-prone copy-pasting effort.

Depending on your business management system, you can set up rules to choose your preferred vendors for each of your customers. At the click of a button, the project is created, and a notification goes out to the preferred vendors informing them that the project is ready to be taken. Project management overhead is close to zero, so your tiny projects can also be profitable. And did we mention that your translators will also be able to pick up projects using BeLazy?

Not everything can be automated and exceptions need to be handled separately. BeLazy flags projects that cannot be resolved using automation rules so you can choose what to do with them straight from BeLazy. And it gets smarter by applying machine learning.

Vendor portals

Vendor portals are webpages that allow translation vendors to see, retrieve and approve the jobs they are offered or assigned to. They are the vendor-facing interfaces of business or translation management systems. We currently connect with:

Business management systems

Business management systems help manage projects, vendors, and finances related to translation and localization. Some companies have developed their own – to which BeLazy connects via APIs – while others are using commercially available options. We currently connect with:

Google sheets

Google Sheets is a spreadsheet program included as part of a free, web-based office suite offered by Google. It helps to keep records of all your incoming projects. We plan a native integration soon, but an integration using the third-party tool Zapier is already available in case you are interested. Contact us for details.
